Liu Caogu wanted to take Liu Mu Nan and Xiao Ku Nu to the hospital for examination, although Liu Mu Nan was unwilling, but under Liu Cao Gu's unquestioning eyes, he had to lower his head and listen to her arrangement obediently.

Liu Cao Gu took Liu Mu Nan and Xiao Ku Nu to the city to see a doctor, and the results came out after a few days, it was not Xiao Ku Nu's problem, it was Liu Mu Nan's problem. Liu Caogu asked the doctor if there was a way to treat it, but the doctor neither said that it could be cured, nor did he say that it could not be cured.

The doctor, who had to ask him for a long time to reply a few words, blinked his eyes and told Liu Caogu: "I don't have any particularly effective medicine here, there is a specialized hospital next to the Chinese medicine hospital, there is an old Chinese medicine doctor surnamed Jia, I heard that Dr. Jia is still very good at treating infertility, you might as well try it." ”

Liu Caogu took Liu Mu Nan to the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and on the side of the sign with black on a white background outside the gate of the Chinese Medicine Hospital, a slightly smaller sign with a red card on a white background was hung, and the red paint was a little conspicuous, which read "Infertility Specialist".

They found the old Chinese medicine doctor Dr. Jia that the doctor said, and the old Chinese medicine doctor Jia Da did some more examinations for Liu Mu Nan, Liu Mu Nan was a little reluctant: "These tests have been done in other hospitals, so there is no need to do them again, right?" ”

Dr. Jia said disapprehantly: "What has been done before is the previous thing, and it was done by others before, right?" Okay? I'm not sure that you come to me and you won't listen to me? Who do you listen to? These tests are also indispensable. Liu Munan had no choice but to follow Dr. Jia's advice and re-examine in the traditional Chinese medicine hospital.

Doctor Jia put the dozen or so reports that had been examined on the table in front of him, and then looked at them one by one without raising his head, and after reading them, he began to check the pulse according to the diagnosis and treatment procedures of traditional Chinese medicine. Seeing a doctor is a process of understanding the disease. What is the process of recognizing disease? For example, if you are a man who looks healthy and fine, but you can't get your wife pregnant, that's a problem. ”

After Dr. Jia finished taking the pulse, he took out the earpiece and put it into Liu Mu Nan's clothes: "What's the problem?" Then it is necessary to check, what can the doctor do besides the examination? We are engaged in traditional Chinese medicine, and the doctor will find out the root of your disease, using four methods: looking, smelling, asking, and cutting, to see the outside and detect the inside, and then find out the root of your disease. If you find it, you can cure the disease. Do you understand? ”

Liu Mu Nan saw that what he said was the way, so he nodded and said, "Understood." ”

Doctor Jia taught Liu Mu Nan a lesson again: "It's good to understand." If you want to cure your disease, you must trust the doctor, and only by believing in the doctor can you be able to cure your disease. If you don't trust the doctor, there's a kind of resistance in your heart. If there is resistance in my heart, even if I take medicine, it is difficult to have a curative effect. Do you understand? ”

Although Liu Mu Nan was still suspicious in his heart, he still said helplessly: "I understand, I understand, I listen to Dr. Jia." ”

Liu Caogu felt that this Dr. Jia was refreshed, and he was talking again, and there were dozens of people queuing up outside to see a doctor, so she felt that she had not come to the wrong place.

Dr. Jia saw Liu Munan's illness and prescribed him another prescription: "Do you live in the countryside?" Seeing that Liu Mu Nan didn't speak, Aunt Liu Cao promised on the side: "Live in the countryside." Dr. Jia said without raising his head: "Living in the countryside, it's inconvenient to go back and forth, I'll prescribe more medicine for you." It saves you from running back and forth, which costs money and suffers. ”

When he returned from the city, Liu Mu Nan carried a large bag of Chinese medicine and brought it home. Aunt Liu Cao asked Xiao Kunu to decoct the medicine for Liu Mu Nan to drink every day, sometimes Liu Cao Gu was not at ease, afraid that Liu Mu Nan would not want to drink the medicine, so she decocted the medicine herself, and then watched Liu Mu Nan drink the medicine.

Liu Mu Nan patiently drank bitter and astringent Chinese medicine for nearly half a year, and Xiao Kunu's stomach was still flat and did not react at all.

Aunt Liu Cao took Liu Mu Nan and went to the "infertility specialist" next to the Chinese medicine hospital. Although Liu Caogu also had some doubts about Dr. Jia in her heart, she looked back and saw that there were still a lot of people queuing up to see a doctor, no less than the last few times, so she dispelled the doubts in her heart.

Dr. Jia still asked Liu Mu Nan to go for an examination like the last time he came to see a doctor, but Liu Mu Nan was reluctant to do it again: "I did it last time, do you still want to do it?" Dr. Jia said unhappily: "Last time was the last time, if you don't do it this time, how do I know if your illness is better?" How good is it? Do you understand? Yanagi Nan just did the same as last time, and did the examination again.

Doctor Jia picked up more than a dozen examination reports and looked at them, Liu Caogu stood beside Liu Mu Nan and couldn't help asking, "Doctor Jia, he has been taking Chinese medicine for so long, and it has no effect at all, is there something wrong with this medicine?" After taking so many medicines, if there is no problem with this medicine, it shouldn't have no effect? ”

Doctor Jia raised his eyes and saw that Liu Caogu did not speak, and after putting down the examination report in his hand, he began to check Liu Munan's pulse again, and then stared at Liu Caogu and said, "Does your husband like to drink?" There was not a single smell of medicine on his clothes, and they all smelled of alcohol. How can this cure the sick? I just looked at it, and his illness is worse than before, and he shows very bad symptoms. As I told you, you are strictly forbidden to drink alcohol and not to smoke while taking medicine. Some of them are more serious, and they cannot have intercourse during treatment. Otherwise, it will definitely have no effect at all, and it will cause irreversible infertility. Do you understand? ”

Liu Caogu didn't know what irreversible infertility meant, and Dr. Jia looked at Liu Caogu a little strangely and said, "You are really strange as a woman, don't you even understand this?" Liu Caogu said embarrassedly: "Doctor Jia, I really don't understand." ”

Dr. Jia said contemptuously: "This means, that is, your husband's thing may never get up, and it is considered a waste." Got it? Liu Caogu blushed and said, "Understood." Doctor Jia, you are wrong, he is not my husband. ”

Dr. Jia looked at her strangely and said, "You are a strange woman, he is not your husband?" You still brought him to see the disease? Liu Caogu had no choice but to say truthfully: "He is my younger brother." Dr. Jia shook his head with a puzzled face: "If you believe me, continue to take medicine." If you don't believe me, you can go now. ”

Liu Caogu thought to herself: "It's better to be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, if you don't believe in Dr. Jia, which doctor can you trust?" "She doesn't recognize any doctors, whether it's true or not, whether it's fake or not, there's no way to figure it out, just leave it to fate. Although Liu Mu Nan was very reluctant, she still asked Dr. Jia to prescribe medicine, and asked Liu Mu Nan to carry back a large bag of Chinese medicine.

Liu Caogu couldn't figure out why Liu Mu Nan couldn't do this, she wanted to ask Liu Mu Nan, but she was still embarrassed to open up after all. Liu Mu Nan seemed to see what she was thinking, and his heart became even more melancholy, and he was depressed all the way. He didn't answer anything Liu Caogu said, he didn't want to say anything, he didn't want to say anything.

After returning from the hospital that time, Yanagi Nan seemed to be a different person, always doing things silently with his head down, and occasionally getting angry inexplicably. Xiao Kunu is a submissive woman, and when Liu Mu Nan gets angry, she doesn't seem to see or hear it. Liu Mu Nan lost his temper, like a deflated ball, he took a chair and sat aside, and then he quieted down, thinking aimlessly about his thoughts.

Liu Caogu asked Xiao Kunu to persuade Liu Mu Nan to take medicine for another two months, Liu Mu Nan was unwilling to toss like this anymore, so he followed a few friends and the village construction team to go out to work. He began a life of going out early and returning late, after working during the day, as soon as he returned home at night, he fell asleep after dinner, and the farm work at home was also handed over to Xiao Kunu to do.

When Liu Caogu took the time, she asked Xiao Kunu: "Is Mu Nan's illness a little better than before?" Xiao Kunu said with a flushed face: "I don't know, he hasn't touched me for a long time." Liu Caogu looked at Xiao Kunu very strangely and said, "There is such a thing, why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”

Xiao Kunu was embarrassed and said, "It's hard for me to say, what do you want me to say about this kind of thing?" ”

Liu Caogu said disappreciatively: "You can say anything to me, and I am not an outsider." I'm Mu Nan's sister, and I'm your sister, what can't you say to me? He's a man, you're a woman, and you sleep together every day, so why doesn't he touch you? When you go to bed at night, don't put on your clothes to see if he touches you. ”

Xiao Kunu said with some embarrassment: "I just don't sleep with clothes on, and he still doesn't see it." Liu Caogu shook her head, silently looked at Xiao Kunu's, and sighed helplessly.

Liu Caogu thought about Xiao Kunu and Liu Mu Nan in her heart, and felt that she really had to take care of Liu Mu Nan, she remembered what her father said the day before he died, and her father said: "I thought I could watch Mu Nan get married with my own eyes, but I didn't expect to fall down." There is no way to live, old age, sickness and death. I'm leaving, you are a sister, you have to take care of Mu Nan, Mu Nan is a man, he has no scheming since he was a child, you have to help him start a family, and help him give birth to a son to inherit the incense, Dad will rest assured, he will be able to close his eyes when he dies, and it is not in vain that I adopted you two sisters and brothers. ”

When Dad said this, Liu Caogu and Liu Mu Nan both knelt in front of him and wept, Liu Cao Gu comforted Dad and said: "Dad, don't worry, I remember everything Dad said, I will do what Dad says, I won't ignore Mu Nan." "When my father was dying, his eyes were closed peacefully.

When I got up early the morning the day before yesterday, Xiao Kunu and her husband went out one after the other and went to work in the fields. Liu Mu Nan packed up his tools and was about to go out on a motorcycle, when Liu Caogu beckoned and said, "You don't want to go out to work today, I have something to say to you." ”

Liu Mu Nan took off his helmet and looked at Liu Caogu: "If you have anything to say, just say it quickly, if you don't go to work, you have to ask for leave one day in advance, otherwise the foreman will deduct my salary for a few days, and after you say it, I'll go to work again." ”

Liu Caogu did not shy away from staring at Liu Mu Nan and asked, "Why don't you touch Xiao Kunu?" Aren't you a man? Or is there something about her that doesn't satisfy you? Which woman is worse than the bitter girl? In my opinion, there is no better woman than her in ten miles and eight villages. ”

Liu Mu Nan looked at Liu Cao Gu in a daze and was silent, and Liu Cao Gu had an inexplicable anger in her heart: "I am also a woman, I can understand the bitter girl, if you don't touch her, what will she think in her heart?" Have you thought about it for her? Are you still a man? Do you still look like a man? Liu Mu Nan didn't dare to look at Liu Cao Gu anymore, turned his head to look away, and after a while he had to say bitterly: "I can't do it anymore." ”

Liu Caogu complained: "You can't do it anymore? The doctor told you to take medicine but you didn't take it, and you didn't quit drinking and smoking. Drinking and smoking, but it's not okay to do this? ”

Liu Mu Nan turned his head, his eyes were full of melancholy, he looked at Liu Cao Gu helplessly and said, "I'm not a man? I have no self-esteem? I'm telling you plainly, I'm no longer good, it's equivalent to quitting sex, and you still want me to quit drinking and smoking, what's the point of living as a man? It's better to be dead. ”

Aunt Liu Cao became even more angry when she heard Liu Mu Nan's words: "Why did you become like this? You can't be like this! You don't have the right to be like this! You don't remember your father's words. Dad has the grace of nurturing you, and you still have responsibilities and obligations to the Liu family. Do you want to die? Then you don't deserve to be a man! ”

Liu Mu Nan felt that he couldn't say the grievances in his stomach, and looked at Liu Cao Gu with some resentment and said, "Why do you have to worry about my business?" Doesn't it work? Please, leave me alone! ”

Liu Caogu said angrily: "What did you say? Regardless of you? Don't even think about it, whether you want to or not, I have to take care of this matter, and I have to take care of it to the end! I'm your sister, I don't care about you? Who else will take care of you? Liu Mu Nan turned his head again, and said with some despair: "You are not my own sister, you can't care." Liu Caogu's tears welled up and fell down her cheeks.

Liu Caogu was abandoned by her biological parents when she was three years old, and her father picked her back from starvation on the grass by the roadside on the way to pick up waste. Liu Caogu remembered that when she was a child, Liu Mu Nan also said something like this, Liu Cao Gu asked Liu Mu Nan to call her sister, he just didn't shout, and said a little arrogantly: "You are not my sister, I won't call you sister, I don't want you to be my sister, I want you to be my wife, I want you to be my wife, I want to marry you as a wife." ”

When his father found out, he beat Liu Mu Nan hard, telling Liu Mu Nan to remember that he was not allowed to talk like this in the future, let alone think like this again: "She is not your sister?" Which one is your sister? She is your sister, a sister who is closer than her own sister, and you are not allowed to say that she is not your sister in the future! Remember? If you can't remember, if you say something like this again, get out of this house and never let me see you again." ”

Liu Mu Nan nodded with tears in his eyes and promised: "Dad, I remember, Cao Gu is my sister, and I will never say it again." ”

Since then, Yanagi Nan has never dared to say this again, and now he has blurted it out again. Liu Caogu looked at Liu Mu Nan sadly, and Liu Mu Nan also knew that he shouldn't say this. But he still couldn't hold back, and finally said the words that made Liu Caogu angry the most.

Liu Mu Nan turned his head and saw that Liu Caogu was crying, and his heart suddenly felt sour, his tone softened, and he turned his face away and said, "I didn't want to see you cry since I was a child, don't cry, I'll just listen to you." ”

Liu Caogu said with red eyes: "You have to find a way to make Xiao Kunu pregnant with a child, you can't let our Liu family fall on the door frame, if you are like this, you and I will be sorry for Dad." Yanagi nodded with difficulty.

Liu Caogu didn't expect that Liu Mu Nan had just agreed in person a few days ago, and he would listen to her in the future, take medicine well, and quit drinking and smoking. Today she came back drunk again, she was angry and distressed when she saw it, but she could only watch him unconscious, and there was nothing she could do.

Liu Caogu's heart was a mess, she didn't know what else she could do to help Liu Mu Nan and Xiao Ku Nu, when she lay on the bed with a heavy heart, what kind of husband had already fallen asleep on the side, she looked at the sturdy man beside her with a little disappointment. After the husband drank the wine, his red and black face became even darker, and a trace of an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Liu Caogu scolded in her heart: "This dead pig wants to do good things in his dreams." Why can't Yanagi Nan? ”
